Yeh, most cars do.......since it looks sooooo HOT in pics, it'll have stunning visual impact in real life and it'll look good in any colour too ;)

the rear wheels are 1.5" wider than the front :)

19" x 8" front alloy wheel with 245/40 R19 98Y tyre

As mentioned in the Wagon thread, HSV have finally updated their website, which includes the VXR and now the new Maloo.

I'll bet their website is getting a record number of hits since the release of the VE Maloo......

Will be exciting when all 3 - Wagon, Ute and Coupe are available :)

Personally it looks over designed for me. Much prefer the SS-V. Those extensions of the tail lights on the tailgate look out of place and the b pillar/tray lip extension looks awkward. It looks like they've not been able to decide which design direction to go with and just said bugger it, we'll do it all.

[xplosv57]

Agreed, the tailights look poo, should've done some sort of circular LED design like the VE HSV sedans, otherwise from the front and the side, she looks mean and gotta love the remote hardtop release!!!

Really tradies are going to use it

Really tradies are going to use it

With a load capacity less than a Corsa Van.....doubt it:D

[EL BURITO]

Think the idea of spearing the lights into the rear door for the tray is a bad idea. should have just left them on the side

It looks awesome!!!! Looks very Aston Martin in the middle section of the car.

Guys, spotted one today (red one) on the road and in the flesh, looks AWESOME even the rear tail gate - a bit unusual, but still looked very good.....

Side on and front on, it has significantly more presence and 'eye catching' factor than the basic Holden model :)

Ishley, coupe should look fantastic and speaking of tail lights, hopefully the coupe' will be better than those funny looking ones on that concept pic I put up :)
